Gotta love these folks, Varmint Grenade bullets
« on: November 02, 2006, 03:32:16 AM »
Varmint Grenade™Frangible Core—Explosive Fragmentation

Created by exclusive technology Barnes developed for military applications, the new Varmint Grenade™ bullet features a highly frangible, copper-tin composite core. It remains intact at ultra-high velocities, yet fragments explosively on impact. Virtually vaporizes in ground squirrels and prairie dogs. Delivers pinpoint accuracy for dependable long-range kills. These lead-free bullets will be offered in 36-grain .22 caliber and 62-grain 6mm bullets in 100- and 250-bullet packs.

Hmm...they are missing 85% of the market of varmint rounds.

36 grain 22 caliber?  Maybe for a 22 hornet.

I read Clair Reese's article in rifle or handloader I cant remember which, he was testing the savage port side varmit gun and usin the new varmit gernade bullets and was quite happy with there performance on p. dogs.
Even at 36 from a 223 damn they would be smokin, talk bout red mist. Gotta git some.
